—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“...he came towards them early in the morning, walking on the sea.”
—Bible: New Testament, Mark 6:48.
“The word career is a divisive word. It’s a word that divides the normal life from business or professional life.”
—Grace Paley (b. 1922)
“The poet needs a ground in popular tradition on which he may work, and which, again, may restrain his art within the due temperance. It holds him to the people, supplies a foundation for his edifice; and, in furnishing so much work done to his hand, leaves him at leisure, and in full strength for the audacities of his imagination.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
